TLS is more of a beast than the TLR, instant grunt to go and handles better than the TLR though the bends. I road a freinds TLR and when i got back i gave the keys back in disgust, ive ridden 3 TLS and all are a hoot, today i took the one i have just completed a rebuild and another freinds TLS and i was grinning side to side when i was wheeling them both outside the Ace, very very very easy. ![]()

Old teck at chelmsford had one.(TLS)
He striped and re jiged the radial damper. It had the frame mod were they broke at the shock, but his broke even though this was done. The TLS was the top bannana when it came to V twinshttp://www.mcnews.com.au/Testing/rsvdyno.htm The SV1000 sz ltd ed had allot of the old pep that the TL had + a flash paint job.

Maybe the "similar threads" bit at the bottom...
I still would love a TLS. Somebody at suzuki knew how to design front headlights for that "wouldn't like to meet in a dark alley" look. ![]() Oh and a ![]() 2 of very few bikes I would actually keep the fairing on ![]() Interesting to read about the rear damper above, I hear about people modifying them by changing the pistons, giving you choice of hundreds of designs since they're helpfully the same size as fork pistons... since unlike a normal damper the pistons keep still and the vanes push oil through them.
